No they never can except for Dinosaur, Valiant, and the Wild why? because Disney didn't team up with Pixar for those ones Chicken Little got lucky.

I loved Valiant. I thought it was a highly entertaining movie and it's one of the relatively few animated movies I own on DVD.

The rest though... meh. Dinosaur had gorgeous visuals, but the 'plot' was inert and the characters forgettable. I also hated Chicken Little... thought it was obnoxious and unfunny. And I didn't even bother seeing Madagascar 2... er, The Wild.

The worst CG animated movie has to be Shark Tale from DreamWorks. One of the lamest movies I've ever sat through. It mistook throwaway pop culture references and celebrity voices for storytelling and completely failed.

Pixar is definitely the cream of the crop when it comes to CG animated films.

I forgot to mention it before, but I also loved Lifted, the animated short before Ratatouille. I enjoyed it so much, in fact, I purchased it from iTunes today. My favorite short is still For The Birds (before Monsters, Inc.), but this comes in at a very close second.

Actually there will be a Madagascar 2 it should be out sometime next year Dana Carvey will be lending a voice to an armadillo. Apparently Shark Tale was trying to tell us something Angelina Jolie lent her voice right? she tried to do to Oscar what she did to Brad but I thought the plot was ok and the hilarity through the roof.

Took the kids to see this yesterday. It was very cute....but a tad long. The kids did really well (they're 2 and 4) until about the last 1/2 hour. I had to pull out the emergency popcorn stash to keep them quiet. I'd definitely recommend it!

I took my 3 kids the other day (ages 13, 6 and 4) and we weren't too thrilled with it. The movie was way to long and didn't have much in the way of grabbing your attention.

I love Cars. I've seen it 12,547 times.
